Monitoring of nevus density in children as a method to detect shifts in melanoma risk in the population.
Annette Pfahlberg,Wolfgang Uter,C Kraus,W R Wienecke,Udo Reulbach,K. F. Kölmel,Olaf Gefeller +6 more
TL;DR: CMONDE is regarded as a highly feasible surveillance instrument, which should be implemented as an important addition to regular regional or national health reporting.

Contact allergy in patients with rosacea: a clinic-based, prospective epidemiological study
TL;DR: This study highlights the importance of knowing the carrier and removal status of canine coronavirus, as a source of infection for other animals, not necessarily belonging to the same breeds.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors advocate for full ingredient labeling in the implementation of EU regulation for medical devices (MD) in order to better inform patients about which substances they should avoid, and which alternative MD may be suitable/tolerated.

The association between ambient air conditions (temperature and absolute humidity), irritant sodium lauryl sulfate patch test reactions and patch test reactivity to standard allergens
Wolfgang Uter,Janice Hegewald,Annette Pfahlberg,Claudia Pirker,Peter J. Frosch,Olaf Gefeller +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a logistic regression analysis was performed to support the decision as to whether erythematous patch test reactions to allergens are irritant or allergic, and the pattern of association was heterogeneous: while doubtful reactions to nickel sulfate were significantly associated with dry/cold weather conditions, but not with SLS reactivity, the opposite was observed for lanolin alcohol, benzocaine and Myroxylon pereirae resin (balsam of Peru).

Positive patch tests with a dermatophagoides mix relate to an increased responsiveness to standard patch test allergens.
TL;DR: No relationship was found between positive dermatophagoides patch tests and an atopic disposition of the patients or characteristics of their eczema, and the reactivity to the mite mix was not related to the responsiveness towards any particular contact allergens.
